My wife and I have been healed by reading your book, “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures.” We both feel very grateful to you.
Five months ago my wife gave birth to a child, without pain or
inconvenience, has done all the housework since, and has been every minute
perfectly well. Neither she nor the child have been ill,—as was constantly
the case with former children,—so we have thought it right to name the
child Glover Eddy.
We have been reading Science and Health nearly two years, and have sold
several copies to others. We are reading the _Journal_ also this year.
Yours respectfully, JOHN B. HOUSEL, Lincoln, Neb.

_Dear Mother:_—The most blessed of women! Oh, how I long to sit within
range of your voice and hear the truth that comes to you from on high! for
none could speak such wondrous thoughts as have come from your pen, except
it be the Spirit that speaketh in you.
Two years ago last October, while laboring under a great strain of care
and anxiety in regard to financial affairs, I heard of Christian Science.
I borrowed “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” and began to
read. I bless God that I was driven to it by such an extremity. After
reading some one hundred and fifty pages, I was convinced that it was the
truth for which I had searched during twenty years. While I was reading
the chapter on Imposition and Demonstration,(9) I was healed of
endometritis and prolapsus uteri of over twenty years’ standing,
pronounced incurable by eminent physicians. Professor Ludlam, the dean of
Hahnemann Medical College, of Chicago, Ill., was one of my doctors.
Before I was healed, to walk seven or eight blocks would so fatigue me
that it would take me a week to recover. I now started out and walked, and
was on my feet all day and for several succeeding days, but felt no
weariness from my labors.
I felt, after being healed, I must have a Science and Health of my own. I
had no money to buy it, so earned it by getting subscribers for the
_Journal_. It has gone with me everywhere I have been. I have been well
ever since.
I had suffered from bodily ailments, but they were nothing compared to my
mental trials. Grief, hatred, jealousy, and revenge had well-nigh bereft
me of reason. I had lost a home of plenty, been reduced to almost abject
poverty, and had become a cheerless woman,—could not smile without feeling
I had sinned.
All my griefs and sorrows are now turned to joy, and my hatred is changed
to love. “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will
toward men.” I read Science and Health, and all your other books, together
with the New Testament, every minute I can get.—E. B. C., Omaha, Neb.
